"I am very pleased with the turnout. Two or three years ago only 225 people came out," said Altadonna. "Every vote counts when trustees ask for additional funding for the community.

Mayor James Altadonna received 277 votes for his fourth two-year term, while trustees Harry Jacobson received 267 allowing him a fourth two year term and trustee Joe Pinto his his fifth, two-year term with 277 votes.
